Dopamine hydrochloride is the salt form of dopamine, a crucial neurotransmitter and hormone vital for brain function, movement, heart rate, and blood pressure, used medically as a powerful drug to treat severe low blood pressure (hypotension), shock, and low cardiac output by improving heart function and blood flow, often in critical care settings, though it requires careful administration due to its potent effects.
